The first Avatar had snowflakes heading in to therapist offices lamenting the loss of Pandora and wishing so much that it was real. I can’t wait to see how they react to the sequel. Much tears and gnashing of teeth I presume.

I think, for him, the money is not going to be in the theatres but in the video game and computer industry for graphics. With the technology in this movie, he will be able to license it out to the various game companies who want ultra-realistic graphics for their games.

It’s a cartoon, people. Aren’t you an adult?

The stories are rehashed tales of old. Last one was Pocahantas in space. There’s nothing brilliant in plagiarism.

The villains are always the innovators and the heroes the savages in this world of pretend. It’ worse than a fairy tale since fairy tales have a point. These cartoons have nothing to say except ‘I shall destroy the creators who gave me this world and build nothing of my own because I cannot, and that’s your fault’.

I saw the first one, was impressed by the cutting edge graphics and cinematic techniques.

The rest, and the director not so much.

Give me Rod Serling any day. Imagine the 100s of films he could have made for 2 billion dollars adjusted for inflation of course.

What you are going to see is a vision of the near future.

A future where genders are fluid, where corporations control freedom of speech a future where cops are bastards, and politicians are worse.

A place where all white people are guilty of crimes their ancestors did not commit, and masks are a status symbol.

A utopian society where beloved world leaders might play the piano with their penis.

An Orwellian place where the lack of privacy is a celebrated reality

Took my son to see “Devotion” tonight. Not bad. Little schmaltzy at the end.

The trailers were:

(1) Avatar: nuff said.

(2) Some gay rom/com/dram with 2 guys sucking face on the bed and taking long walks on the beach. Ugh.

(3) Something with four 80-year-old ladies that go to the Super Bowl with no tickets and end up dancing in the halftime show with a drag queen. Neato.

(4) Some stupid action movie where bad guys do a home invasion and Santa Claus comes to save the day with reindeer and guns a’blazin. I kid you not.

Needless to say, we won’t be going back to the movies again for at least a while.

I liked Avatar for nothing more than the technology they used to create and film the movie with. It was cool for that aspect.
As for the movie itself? Pure crap. Capitalists bad, natives good. Capitalists want to destroy the world, natives preserve... same old BS and lies.

I can’t imagine anyone asking for this movie. It’s like some sort of manufactured-hype, forced “must-see” with no memorable characters and a stupid storyline. No Chewbacca or Darth Vader. No cool spaceships. No toy line worth a damn. No lasting cultural relevance whatsoever. Avatar is a big blumpkin in the end, in my opinion.
